Hi Ilpo and all,
Yes, great that there are tests in place :) Sorry this was one of the
later changes and I can't remember now when exactly I did the full
testing vs not as per the kernel documentation (as there were several
iterations to the patch for this driver) but I believe I have
identified what should be fixed and can send it shortly.

Ilpo would you prefer a patch on top of the existing patch (i.e. just
a diff of these 2 lines) or would you rather that I create a v11 of
the original patch and send the whole thing again?

Thanks again!

Best regards,
Joshua
